My dog
Okay my dog is real sweet and she is so lovable! But she dosn't do well with farm animals but we sorta have alot of land so we got chickens, we got 2, she killed both of them. Then we got more and now we are afraid she will get them again. She is sneaky can probably find a way to get to them. She attcked one but we stopped her. And sometimes she finds ways to get out of the fence and goes somewhere else and we have to go looking for her. And now my dad says we are going to have to get rid of her. I don't know what to do. I love her but she is not very good with chickens. What do you think I should do with her? Is she good to keep?

Hi!
ooohhhh your in a tough situation. I would have to say spread a nasty spray (vinegar, something like that) and let the dog smell it. Then, if she tries to go near the chickes, spray her and the chickens.

she is def. a keeper. you know what i would do. put a little bit of vineagr in your hand and let your dog smell it and taste it. see your dogs reaction and if she doesnt like it put some viengar in a spray bottle and spray some on the chickens and if she gets to close to them spray her with the vinegar. i hope that i helped and i hope it works.=)Amanda

Yes. She is good to keep. It just sounds like she needs training. Try putting her and the chickens 5 metres apart, but have soeone standing off to the side just in case your dog attacks. Slowly edge them closer together. If the dog looks like she is going to attack, pull her back a bit. Eventually, after you keep putting them closeer togther, the dog will get the scent of the chickens, and will no longer attack. ( It works I did it with my dog and bird, my dog and mouse, and my dog and fish.)
I hope this helps!
